Always wash your hands thoroughly before cleansing to prevent bacteria from entering your pores and causing adverse reactions. Use different cleansers for winter and summer Your skin may change with the seasons—typically becoming oilier in summer and drier in winter—so adjust your cleanser accordingly. If you have sensitive skin, opt for a gentle cleanser, avoid scrubbing too hard, and keep it on your face for a shorter time.Limit washing to twice daily—morning and night—as more frequent cleansing isn't necessary. Avoid vigorous scrubbing Believing that harder massaging cleanses more thoroughly is a misconception. Excessive friction damages skin, thins the stratum corneum, causes redness, and compromises the skin's protective barrier.
Wash your neck too
Cleanser isn't just for your face—extend it to your neck as well.
Massage your face and neck
Use your fingertips to make gentle circular motions across your face and neck. This gentle pressure avoids irritation while stimulating blood circulation for a thorough clean.
Rinse Promptly
Once cleanser has loosened impurities from your skin, rinse thoroughly with water immediately. Otherwise, these particles may re-enter your pores, rendering your efforts ineffective.
